Day 6 of 8
Thursday, June 13, 2019 We re-traced our steps back through Topaz and Amoeber and then the western portage into the NAK bay. Then we took the portage immediately south into the bay of SAK. Picture is of my wife with CCS pack on her back and canoe. We try to always single portage which means one of us with canoe and pack and the other with pack and small food barrel on front. We ended up on site 1434 which is sort of hidden when paddling by but a nice site once you’re in it. We caught some northerns, smallies, and walleye later that day and ate a few for supper. That afternoon I paddled our butts all over SAK and didn't get a single hit while trolling/drifting for lakers. Not sure what we were doing wrong but that was a waste of time until I switched and went for walleye and hammered them instead.
